HERITAGE
FORUM
As an archipelagic nation located at the intersection of major trade routes and strategic bodies of water, the history of the Philippines and the Filipino people was shaped and defined by its maritime geography and features. From the Ancient Balangays and Spanish Galleons up to the modern freighters, the Philippines has always been a maritime nation.
AIMS Museo Maritimo has taken the initiative in organizing the Philippine Maritime Heritage Forum as a way to build up overall knowledge and facilitate continuous dialogue on Philippine maritime history. This forum intends to contextualize the Philippine maritime past as an organizing principle for the realization of the Philippines as a maritime nation. Its primary objective is to examine the maritime opportunities of the Philippines in relation to its maritime history and heritage. It involves discussions and studies that can help define the Philippines as a maritime nation by using its maritime past as a backdrop.
